Player Biography
Connie Mack won five World Series titles, a record nine American League pennants and 3,776 games, nearly 1,000 more than any other manager in history. Still, “The Tall Tactician” is best remembered as a dignified leader who donned a business suit to dispense wisdom to a generation of players. “You’re born with two strikes against you, so don’t take a third one on your own,” Mack was fond of stating to his clubs. Though his entrance to baseball came by playing catcher for 11 seasons, in 1901 Mack assumed control of the Philadelphia Athletics, the team he would lead for the next 50 years.
